If you look at the logo on the FRN the fake has a border around it where it is seperate from the texturing. The on the real enduras the logo platform runs right into the texturing pattern with no gap between them. BTW, I have a ZDP-189 delica in BRG and the coloration on the endura in your video is correct.

The clip end of the real one was more rounded than the one on the clone. You can see this at 7:34. And where the grippy texturing comes up to that one screw, it comes to a point on the clone and it's rounded on the real one. They ran out of room on the clone. LOL

BOOSTEDLASER It is not the steel they stamp on it. They are just copying marks. But according to them, they use pretty good steal. They use steels like 8CR13MOV which spyderco uses, or D2, or 440C. You can ask them and they'll answer. I've only noticed issues with the really cheap clones like the Dragonfly Salt. If you spend about $15 or more on a clone, the steal has been pretty good. Have you not watched my videos? I make statements about the steel in most of them.

@lesgarten9 жыл бұрын
+OPA Extreme The ones I have used have done fine. I have not used them much though. The run steels like D2, 8CR13MOV, 440c, etc. These are very good serviceable steels. I have not done any cut down to dull tests and resharpen though. I just test for fit, finish, and function. The steel in an "expensive" knife is not a huge amount of the cost/price of the knife. For instance, I'll bet the S35v steel in a Chris Reeve knife is about the cost of a coupla bucks. The knife is $450 or so. The Chinese have the capability to take over any market they want. They do not have OSHA, the EPA, or the AFL-CIO, and their labor costs are $00.65-.75/hour. All they have to do is get an eye for detail and a few original thoughts in their heads. Of course their employee turnover can sometimes be high when their workers are committing suicide jumping off the roof of the factories. But that's the cost of doing business... in China!

Yeah I figured that was a good way to do it, The prices do get ridiculous once a knife is discontinued - some people invest in knives that are limited runs just to sell them on ebay or something at a high price. Can't check for the lamination line on non-laminated steel blades though, so it only works in this case sadly - these fakes get better every year it seems, if they keep getting better like this soon we won't be able to tell the difference without sending it to the manufacturer that it is supposed to be. I am hopeful though, I doubt they will put that much effort into it to get it 100% right visually - at least I hope they wont....

I'm a big fan of Ganzo for cheap blades, you get what you pay for.. And in their case they aren't trying to rip anyone off.. They just copy designs mixed with different locks.. I wouldn't buy these to resale obviously but I'd buy the fake, if I was paying for the fake and knew it was a fake. I dunno what steel they use but the 440c Ganzo uses... Is pretty dang good steel for a sub 20$ blade.. Wanna sale the fake (for what it's worth)?

you know blue steel has nothing to do with turning blue right? Its the same as white steel, with more alloying. Definitely will rust. Its Japanese kitchen knife steel! Not something I would ever want to use on a folding knife for EDC.

+Max Savino I think the Blue was from the color of the Paper the steel was wrapped in. It makes a hell of a cutting edge. It needs to be kept oiled if you don't want oxidation.

Yeah, in fact its called aogami, or shirogami for white steel. Just think of the paper called "oragami" super blue is the same as Aogami Super, which means super blue paper steel.

I just confirmed that mine is real...well I got it from BHQ I was pretty sure anyways but nice video helpful for any future knifes I may get. It always gets me laughing when I see how the Chinese clone companies mess up the paperwork despite making the knife itself damn near perfect.

Back lock? It’s brand new yours gas been worked give it some use and it will disengage the same that’s all you can find not fair. All I’m saying is even people who call them selves pro can actually be fooled too you must always be vigilant or buy from a reputable seller. That clone is perfect

So you buy a knife from fraudsters who are ripping off other's intellectual property and all you can say is "if it's good steel it's a good knife?' You know they're thieves, what kind of steel do you think they use? Quit shilling for fraudsters.
